STRINGSTRING
STRING protein interaction network
Nodes:
Network nodes represent proteins
splice isoforms or post-translational modifications are collapsed, i.e. each node represents all the proteins produced by a single, protein-coding gene locus.
Node Color
colored nodes:
query proteins and first shell of interactors
white nodes:
second shell of interactors
Node Content
empty nodes:
proteins of unknown 3D structure
filled nodes:
a 3D structure is known or predicted
Edges:
Edges represent protein-protein associations
associations are meant to be specific and meaningful, i.e. proteins jointly contribute to a shared function; this does not necessarily mean they are physically binding to each other.
Known Interactions
from curated databases
experimentally determined
Predicted Interactions
gene neighborhood
gene fusions
gene co-occurrence
Others
textmining
co-expression
protein homology

yncM
Conserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function.
      
 0.681
tapA
Lipoprotein for biofilm formation; Required for biofilm formation. Required for the proper anchoring and polymerization of TasA amyloid fibers at the cell surface. Is also a minor component of TasA fibers.
     
 0.642
sipW
Type I signal peptidase; Required for the cleavage of the signal sequence of TasA and TapA, which are involved in biofilm formation. Belongs to the peptidase S26B family.
       0.452
ymdB
Putative hydrolase involved in biofilm formation; Plays a central, regulatory role in the late adaptive responses and affects the levels of many genes. May act via regulation of cAMP levels. Decreases the expression of motility genes and induces genes involved in biofilm formation, by controlling the expression of SlrR. Required for formation of intercellular nanotubes that bridge neighboring cells to allow molecular exchange. Plays a key role in directing the early stages of colony development. In vitro, has a metal-dependent phosphodiesterase activity against 2',3'-cAMP and 2',3'-cGM [...]

xynA
Endo-1,4-beta-xylanase; Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type e: enzyme; Belongs to the glycosyl hydrolase 11 (cellulase G) family.
      
 0.426
yqhG
Conserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function.
